Known for its diverse techniques and beautiful glazes, Mino ware often features natural motifs and simple designs. It has a long history, dating back to the 16th century, and is highly regarded for both its aesthetic appeal and functionality. Mino ware includes various sub-styles, such as 志野 (Shino), 織部 (Oribe), and 古信楽 (Koshigaki). Each style has unique characteristics, often influenced by local materials and cultural practices. Today, Mino pottery continues to be produced and appreciated both in Japan and internationally.
